I think wfcdir is still used when wavefunctions are saved to disk during the scf calculation (option disk_io='high', that shouldn't be normally used) but not for writing the final data.
Is there a good reason to use wfcdir? My opinion is that it should be deleted, together with outdir and pseudo_dir: values that depend upon the specific machine should be read from the command line or (better) from environment variables, not from input data. Input data should be portable.
